American Farmers sowing

1 8 bushels per acre 



TWO FACTS 



American Farmers sowing 



Seed Wheat of Pedigree Strains are 



producing 30 to 45 bushels per acre 



It costs as much to lay down an acre of Wheat that yields only 15 bushels per acre as one that will 

 yield from 30 to 45 bushels. The first scarcely returns the cost of the investment while the latter yields 

 a handsome profit. In order to attain such results, sow Henderson's Superior Seed Wheat, which is grown 

 especially for seed purposes, from cross-bred, select pedigree strains of undoubted superiority.

LEAP'S PROLIFIC (Beardless) 



Leap's Prolific Wheat was originated about ten years ago in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. 

 Since then over one hundred thousand bushels have been distributed among the wheat growers throughout 

 the Eastern States. 



The popularity that Leap's Prolific Wheat has gained during the short time since its introduction is 

 without a parallel. 



It is an extremely heavy yielder. Reports from various parts of the country give yields averaging 

 from 41 to 46 bushels to the acre. These yields were produced not on small sample trials, but on large 

 acreages. 



Leap's Prolific Wheat is extremely hardy, it having survived and produced a perfect crop after the 

 fields were covered with ice during the winter. 



It roots deeply and stools vigorously. Only 13^^ bushels are required to sow an acre. It ripens early, 

 with grain and straw maturing at the same time. 



The heads are beardless, glistening white in color, compactly built, filled with heavy, plump, grains 

 from base to tip. The grains are well enclosed thereby protecting them from unfavorable weather con- 

 ditions and also preventing self-shelling when cutting. 



The grain is large, dark red of the Longberry type. It is particularly desirable for its milling qualities. 



The straw is long, stiff and very uniform, jdelding a large tonnage to the acre. 



Price, $3.50 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10-bushel lots, $3.40 per bushel.
